I am not an anti-vaxxer. I am against government mandates. You are making a grave error if you are calling me an anti-vaxxer. It's lazy thinking.
That being said, there are valid concerns to be had when it comes to this vaccine. More and more doctors, virologists, and biologists are speaking out about this. Listen to JRE 1747, for example. However, these are not my main concerns.

My main concern is that we are sleepwalking into a form of authoritarianism that will be virtually impossible to dismantle. Once established, there is no escape. No possibility to break free.

"If you want a picture of the future, imagine a boot stamping on a human face—forever."
We truly are sleepwalking. The most coherent exposé of what is currently happening on a psychological level was done by Mattias Desmet.

Everyone should listen to this interview. Everyone.

I still don't care about your vaccination status, and you shouldn't care about mine.

I do care about a full-blown attack on essential liberties. Liberties that brought freedom and prosperity. And if you want to reduce harm and suffering, you should too.

If you want to see where we are currently heading, look at China.

Total surveillance. Total control. Social credit score for absolutely everything. One wrong move, and you will be deleted from society by the press of a button, literally.
To everyone who is telling me to stick to Bitcoin: I am.

Bitcoin, to me, is freedom. It is free speech money. It puts the individual in the center. It puts the responsibility on the individual, without the use of force. It is non-violent. It bottom-up, not top-down.
Vaccine mandates, censorship, putting the group above the individual, and removing responsibility from the individual is in direct opposition to all of that.

Also: I will tweet about whatever the fuck I want, thank you.

I will continue to speak out, as I have in the past.

Here is a thread on passports from 2019.

Here is one on privacy, from a few months before:

I always cared about these things. If you didn't know this, you just weren't paying attention.

Pay attention. These things are important.

Forcing vaccination passports on 100% of the population is 5 steps too far, and a terrible idea. I will not participate in this totalitarian regime, no matter what.

I will not get the QR code.
If that means that I will have to leave the country, leave the EU, or leave western society, so be it. I have no interest in participating in a society that treats its citizens like that.

The only way I will get this QR code is if they forcefully tattoo it on my skin in prison.
Unfortunately, most people do not share my concerns, because they want to be left alone, or are willing to sacrifice liberty for the greater good.

"Those who would give up essential Liberty, to purchase a little temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety."
I choose Liberty.
I choose #Bitcoin

You love to see it.
Why is this trending, you ask?
Because of @joerogan, that's why.

It is one of the most important conversations that you can currently listen to. As is this conversation with Mattias Desmet.

The world has to snap out of this insanity. The earlier, the better.

Rules and regulations on how to conduct the Christmas Party in your home.

This is fucking ridiculous.
There is a 35 page pdf that explains it all.

Most people are sleeping on Podcasting 2.0 and how the frictionless, direct payments of Bitcoin's lightning network are revolutionizing the Internet's monetization model.

A thread. 🧵👇
Yes, it's still early. Yes, it's still a bit cumbersome to set up. Yes, there are still plenty of improvements to be made. However, streaming payments DO work TODAY.

Anyone can receive sats in return for bits and bytes - without an intermediary.

Thanks to the tireless work of @adamcurry and the people behind @podcastindex, we now have an open specification that can be implemented by everyone. We also have a frictionless model that truly works: The value4value.io model.

Why shitcoins are a waste of your time.

A thread. 🧵👇
Every blockchain competes in the monetary space.

Blockchains can only secure and enforce the transfer of their native token, nothing else.
To do this in a censorship resistant and trustless manner, a monetary incentive is required.

Consequently, all blockchain-based tokens are money and thus compete with other monies. All monies compete for liquidity.

I get #value4value payments every single day. It's still a trickle, but with each passing day I am more convinced that value4value is the right model for monetizing bits and bytes.

Thank you, @adamcurry, for enlightening me. 🧡
The tools will improve. The infrastructure will improve. The understanding will improve.

The model has worked for thousands of years, and it will continue to work in the future.
If you don't know what I'm talking about, have a look at value4value.io and read the few paragraphs I have written on dergigi.com/value
